The OmiCam Wearable Spherical VR Action Camera is designed in an optimal form to be used when clipped onto clothing and gear, taking advantage of its 45° shooting angle to optimally capture point-of-view footage. It can also be used handheld without any additional grip attached. A major feature of this camera is the ability to capture up to 15 hours of your activities in intervals, providing a first-person visual summary of your day in spherical VR.

The OmiCam features a 12MP image sensor and 240° fisheye lens, allowing you to capture Ultra HD 4K, 2.5K, and Full HD 1080p resolution video at 30 fps as well as 4320 x 2160-resolution photos in an expansive, ultra-wide angle. Using the built-in battery, it records 4K video for up to 70 minutes or up to 15 hours of video in Lifelog mode, an interval recording system that captures a 5-second video clip every 3 minutes, while also allowing you to press the record button at any time to manually continue recording. A built-in mic will at the same time record the audio of your adventures.

Wherever and however you decide to mount the OmiCam, built-in Horizontal Movement Stabilization and E-Gimbal Stabilization, two major features of the OmiCam, will smooth out and horizontally level your footage, so you can have presentable videos to share. For sturdily positioning the camera on desktops use the included portable stand; a 1/4"-20 threaded mounting hole is available on the bottom for attaching to your own tripods, monopods, and selfie sticks. The OmiCam is lightweight and weather resistant so it can travel with you on nearly an adventure, and an optional watertight case can be purchased to bring the OmiCam along on underwater excursions. An array of additional accessories for the OmiCam provide a wider range of options for securing the camera to bikes, snowboards, pets, and more (available separately)

For Lifelog recording, the camera operates as a standalone unit. However, when used for standard video recording, the OmiCam syncs up over built-in Wi-Fi to an included OMI Studio app. The app is a fully integrated video management and editing solution in one. It allows you to preview and monitor your shots, record videos and take photos, and broadcast live to popular streaming platforms. It also lets you make edits to your videos, with additional options for adding themes, text, graphics, and music. Moreover, OMI Studio offers a One-Touch Highlight Video editing feature that will automatically transform hours of footage into a short compilation by automatically picking moments from a designated range. Once set, OMI Studio will provide you with a summary clip in spherical VR which can be manually tuned to your preferences.

Q: 1. If the battery dies when recording, will I lose the footage or will it automatically save to memory card. I'm doing a 3hour event so will need to change battery a few times a presume?

A: Most cameras you do not lose it. I have not recorded anything that long with this one so I do not know.

Q: 2. In Playback mode, what does the key icon on the left side of the screen mean when viewing video playback? It doesn't appear on all videos. Also, when Delete is selected on the Setup menu and you press the top button, then in the next menu you highlight Delete Current then press the front button, a screen appears with a list. Using the front button, scroll to the third page with the Playback (blue triangle) icon at the top. The key symbol also appears on this page. Whenever the key symbol is absent during Playback, it's also absent on the list. When present in Playback, it's present on the list. Does anybody know what it means? Thanks.
